Abstract

The present invention relates to an air-vapor separation method for separating air from refrigerant vapor in an immersed liquid-cooling system. The immersed liquid-cooling system comprises an immersed server blade cabinet, a condensing device, an air-vapor separator and a refrigerant storage tank, wherein the refrigerant storage tank supplies a liquid refrigerant to the immersed server blade cabinet, and the liquid refrigerant undergoes a phase change to be vaporized into a refrigerant vapor for cooling of the heating element in the immersed server blade cabinet; the condensing device condenses the refrigerant vapor; the air-vapor separator separates a mixed gas in the immersed liquid-cooling system into the air and the refrigerant vapor. The cooling efficiency of the liquid-cooling system is improved by effectively separating the air from the refrigerant vapor in the liquid-cooling system.
